Why does the moon seem to move as you move?
The moon appears to move in the sky as you move because of its position relative to the Earth. As you change your viewpoint by moving, the angle at which you see the moon changes, causing it to appear to shift its position in the sky. In reality, the moon is staying in its orbit around the Earth.
Which side of the moon is illuminated as it waxes from full to new?
A waxing moon has the light on the right side. A waning moon has the light on the left side. Therefore, moving down from a full moon to a new moon, it must be waning, and the light should be on the left.

Why does the moon appear to wax and then wane?
The moon doesn't really change shape, it is always a full, whole, spherical moon. We just can't always see all of it, we can only see the light side. The sun shines on a specific side of the moon, and because earth (and the moon) are always moving, the sun is shining on different areas of the moon every day. During a new moon, the sun is shining on the part of the moon we can't see.

Why does the pull of gravity keep the moon in orbit around the earth rather than pulling the moon into earth?
The reason is that the Moon is always moving forward.The forward movement of the Moon is balanced with the inward pull of Earth's gravity.Because of this balance, the Moon stays in stable orbit around the Earth.

Is our moon always going to be there?
